NAME¶

prometheus-nginx-exporter - NGINX Prometheus exporter.

SYNOPSIS¶

prometheus-nginx-exporter [option...]

DESCRIPTION¶

NGINX Prometheus exporter makes it possible to monitor NGINX or NGINX Plus using Prometheus.

NGINX exposes a handful of metrics via the stub_status page. NGINX Plus provides a richer set of metrics via the API and the monitoring dashboard. NGINX Prometheus exporter fetches the metrics from a single NGINX or NGINX Plus, converts the metrics into appropriate Prometheus metrics types and finally exposes them via an HTTP server to be collected by Prometheus.

OPTIONS¶

-nginx.scrape-uri string
